In Hamdan v. Rumsfeld, in July 2006, the Supreme Court of the United Statesruled that the Bush Presidency lacked the constitutional authority to set up the military commissions. Only Congress had the authority to set up military commissions. Congress subsequently passed the Military Commissions Act of 2006. But, as of September 2007,Barhoumihas not been re-charged.
